They issued Medical Yesterday and Today they sent pre arrival. Medical is not done yet although appointment is booked. Depends on officer they can issue pre arrival before medical is received

Hi All, I have been silent reader of this thread for around a week. I just want to tell you guys that my brother in law applied for refugee 1 year ago and he has done his medical as well around 5 months ago and now last week he has received hearing date.
I am not sure why he is getting everything very quickly because I am seeing many people here getting even medical call after 1 or 1.5 years after they submit their refugee case.

If your brother-in-law becomes successful at the hearing, that’s when he will now apply for PR as a protected person. That’s also when his time will start counting like other people you see here. I hope you understand this.

what does hearing means? does it mean they have gone through story, they have checked background criminal checks? they have researched about candidate? or they will do it all after hearing?

 

[Orlando_Best]

Hearing is all about looking at your refugee claim to determine if Canada would protect you. It’s also possible to refuse to protect you if they feel you’re not genuine refugee claimant. Looking into your background and other things will start after you apply for permanent residence.

No apart from asking my two children over 14 to go for biometrics. I pray all our files are processed expeditiously including yours. We all deserve to put this whole thing to rest.

CBSA performs background checks on anyone 18 years of age or over who:

• Applies for immigration or
• Claims refugee status after coming to Canada.

Background checks may also be carried out on people who apply to come to Canada temporarily.

We are all passed the background check once during our refugee claimant and thats one of the reason for long waiting time for a hearing, every time you fill a schedule A form you are going through a background check even on the work permits, refugee, PR, citizenship and ...

You have to wait for your eligibility interview, and then wait for it to mail to you, probably takes around 4-6 month to have it in your hand.

Hi guys I’m having an issue regarding my sin number expiry date. I have both work permit and study permit application beings processed along with my PR application. My study permit expires on July and so does my SIN number. I already missed a job opportunity because of my SIN number expiry date but now student aid is telling me I cannot qualify for my summer loan unless my SIN number expiry date is extended. Is there any way I can extend a SIN number just with the notice of decision or I’m obliged to wait until I receive either work permit, study permit or PR. I also had similar issues with my drivers license renewal being denied. Here is the message from student aid below.


Thank you for your email. Once your SIN has been updated, (or extended to include your study period end date), please forward a copy to our offices.



Unfortunately, your application cannot move forward without a SIN document that is valid for the entirety of your study period

Yes you can do it right away. No fees for refugees claimants. There is a list of the countries that you are coming from and they will issue the work permit after 6 months. Good luck. Now waiting time for WP is around 3 months
